KARACHI, Aug 21: Urdu Bazaar, the largest market of books, copies and stationery in the city, remained affected by stagnant rainwater and sewage on Monday, creating hardship for hundreds of visitors seeking textbooks and other educational material as the new academic session began on Aug 16.
A large number of men, women and children thronged the bazaar on Monday after vacations and the week-long closure of the city roads owing to rains.
The presence of stagnant water and filth on the road between Sobhraj Hospital and Urdu Bazaar caused hindrance in the movement of people and vehicles.—PPI
